Travel Taiwan Haiku - Taipei Main Station Poem by john tiong chunghoo

Travel Taiwan Haiku - Taipei Main Station



the city of brokeback
mountain director

taipei main station
subway corridor

a love story whirs
away on the tracks

one looks a girl
one looks a boy

both are girls 16
going on 17

one cries on the
other's shoulder

one consoles
carefully treading over
mushy maudlin tracks

her love flutters
like seeds in the winds
she knows this little episode
will be over, sooner or later
like the train that just
made its way out
